Less than 3 weeks until we leave for Norway!! We are trying to get things wrapped up here at school in the last big push to the end of the year. This weekend, Memorial Day, we plan to get Larkin in Missoula and head on to Bozeman to see Colter and Alli. We plan to go over to Red Lodge where the famous Beartooth Highway will be opening; I'll drive the others to the top, where they will ski down to a switchback on the road where I'll pick them up again! Should be fun unless the weather is yucky--definite possibility.
As I've been checking webcams in Norway, I've noticed that Spring is just arriving--the trees look like Kalispell did a month ago. Go figure. Oslo is right on the 60th parallel and Bergen is just above it. Just for reference, the Canada/U.S. border is the 49th parallel, Denver is just below the 40th and Houston is at the 30th. Mt. McKinley is on the 63rd parallel! We are definitely heading to the North Country! Click here to check out the Norwegian webcam site I found.
